Our Fall Weekend!

Hey, guess what? We had another busy weekend. Yeah, just like all of you we are blessed to have a really busy life and we love every minute of it. First of all, it snowed and as far as I am concerned it is way too early for that stuff. None of it stuck to the ground but the boys had a great time chasing snowflakes to catch on their tongues.

Because of our lovely weather soccer was cancelled which gave us time to accomplish some much needed chores. Saturday afternoon we had a birthday party at the Cub Run Rec Center. It was so much fun and now I officially know where we are going to celebrate Atley's 8th birthday next May! All the kids are such little fish that it was a pretty hard job pulling them out of the pool when it was over.

The primary program was this Sunday and of course I think my boys were absolutely perfect and the most adorable. Not sure if anyone else felt that way, but if they didn't they are very misguided. It was also Harley's first day of nursery. She will be 18 months old on Thursday. While I thought or maybe secretly hoped, that she would cry for momma. She just walked right in and never looked back. None of my kids have ever missed me, I wonder what that means. She is growing up so fast and it is breaking my heart.

Harley is definitely a tomboy. She's rough, loud, fearless, and has no problem defending herself. But, she is also such a little woman. She is constantly cleaning up around the house and yelling at her "BOYZ" to do something or other. She loves to wear my necklaces and my shoes, has an obsession with chocolate, and talks constantly. She is independent and full of personality. She adores animals and has a puppy that she somehow believes has a chronic cold because she spends hours a day unrolling toilet paper and making the puppy blow his nose. She thinks Atley and her daddy are the two most amazing people on the planet. She likes music and seems to have a thing for Adam Levine because she can hum a perfect tune to, Moves like Jagger and My Hearts a Stereo. She thinks getting her teeth brushed is the greatest part of the day and we are thankful for that. She is anemic and has to take iron drops, so if she didn't let us brush her teeth the iron would turn them brown pretty quickly. Her hair is getting longer and I am having lots of fun playing with it. Here is her latest style!

She is almost always happy and we cannot imagine how we ever lived without a little girl in our house!
